Why the cheap end of that list is cheap

Before reading the ranking as a map of which blocks are better value, note what else differs along it. The five cheapest blocks for a 5-room here have a median of 48 years of lease left; the five dearest have 89 years. That is the larger part of the gap, and it is not a discount — it is a shorter thing being sold.

5-room flats across Singapore, by town

The same flat type in every town that cleared 20 sales, dearest per square foot first. This is the comparison that holds: a town-against-town ranking of all sales pooled would partly be ranking each town’s flat-type mix, since 5-room flats were 20 per cent of what sold in Bukit Merah.

5-room flats in Bukit Merah, year by year

Every 5-room sale here since 2017 — 1,967 in all. The right-hand column counts the blocks that sold, because a change in the median between two years is partly a change in which blocks traded.

Questions

How much does a 5-room resale flat in Bukit Merah cost?
The median was $1,080,000 over the 12 months to Oct 2026, across 193 sales in 102 blocks. Half of those sales fell between $888,000 and $1,210,000, and the full range ran from $610,000 to $1,728,000.
What is the price per square foot of a 5-room flat in Bukit Merah?
$844 psf, on a median floor area of 1,238 sq ft. Per square foot is the measure that compares across flat types, and the headline price is not: a larger flat costs more in total and less per square foot at the same time.
How many 5-room flats sold in Bukit Merah in the past year?
193 sales in the 12 months to Oct 2026, across 102 blocks, and 1,967 since 2017. 5-room flats were 20 per cent of everything that resold in Bukit Merah over those 12 months.
Which block in Bukit Merah has the cheapest 5-room flats?
On a per-square-foot median, Blk 116 Bukit Merah Central at $484 psf from one sale, against $1,401 psf at Blk 9B Boon Tiong Road. Most of that gap is lease rather than discount: the five cheapest blocks have a median of 48 years left and the five dearest 89 years. That cheapest figure rests on a single sale, which is an anecdote rather than a rate.
Is Bukit Merah expensive for a 5-room flat?
Bukit Merah is the fourth dearest of 26 towns for a 5-room flat, per square foot. The dearest is Central Area at $1,288 psf and the cheapest Woodlands at $506 psf. The comparison holds the flat type still, because a ranking of towns on all sales pooled would partly be ranking their flat-type mix.
How much lease is left on 5-room flats in Bukit Merah?
Between 47 years and 92 years on the flats that sold, with a median of 73 years. An HDB flat is a 99-year lease, so the remaining lease is most of what separates a cheap block here from a dear one.

How this was worked out

Every figure on this page comes from the Housing Board’s resale transaction register on data.gov.sg, retrieved Oct 2026 — 1,967 sales of 5-room flats in Bukit Merah since 2017, of which 193 sales fell in the 12 months to Oct 2026. These are completed transactions, not listings or asking prices. Medians are medians and never means, a flat type is published for a town only once it clears 20 sales in the year, and no price here is adjusted for inflation.
